The tune (the 'barber's dance' or 'Indian dance') is known throughout Québec and is thought to trace back to old French tunes from the 17th and 18th centuries. It accompanies a comic pantomime dance (featuring a barber or Indian) about a hunt that is popular in French Canada and Franco-American New England, note Hart & Sandell (2001).
